Hi all,
Since we are talking about searching in Excel 2003.
Does anyone know how to do multiple searches within a cell?
I have some cells in a spreadsheet with up to 4 pages of unformatted text in a
column of cells I need to search through data and put
into other cells in same spreadsheet.
I will have reoccurrences of same search string within the cell I am searching.
So far I have not even figured out a way to read word by word or sentence by
sentence within a cell to copy what I want. So I copy
the complete cell to Word and do my searching in Word
I am using latest version of Jaws 9.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi,
That's a whole lot better than my suggestion to use ctrl+y, since it
announces the cell in which it's found. Cool. I thought maybe this is
specific to JAWS but it's not. It works with Window-Eyes, too.
Thanks a bunch.
Tom
